12. Conclusions and Documentations:

The LaTeX2HTML translator appears to be a quite efficient tool and allows to obtain a satisfactory HTML version of scientific/technical documents without large efforts. The main points to obtain a satisfactory HTML documents from an existing LaTeX document are the following:

• - Properly install LaTeX.2e and LaTeX2HTML
• - Add the .latex2html-init file in the document directory and customize the splitting of the document.
• - Take an existing document source as this one to have a proper header.
• - Maybe replace some \ref by \hyperref from places to places.
• - Try to make a effort to avoid page-references. If there are some, use the conditional \pageref and \htmlref command combinations.
• - Make a GIF version of each figure by xv, and add a conditional command to implement the GIF image in the HTML document

and this is enough! A clean HTML document can then be obtained very rapidly.
